Rainbow mountains

On the trail to the rainbow mountains

Get our brave caucasian horses! They are very hardy on the trail and accustomed to open areas. After all, this is their pasture every day. These are our Mose horses from the High Caucasus from the village of Ushguli, where we organise horseback tours in the summer. They spend the winter and spring precisely on the Georgian steppes. Winter is much milder here than in the High Caucasus. As a result, we can invite you on beautiful horse trails! Spring is luscious green glades and autumn sparkles in golden colours. The tour season runs from November to the end of May.

Saddles We have Georgian ones with a large and comfortable cushion on the seat. They are ideal for longer journeys. 

1. Rajd konny do Tęczowych Gór

We set off on horseback to rainbow mountains and a picturesque lake. These places are called the Georgian Mars or Peru! We travel about 25 km round trip on horseback. The trail leads through Georgian steppes, dirt roads. We ride at a brisk pace. We have ideal stretches for fast gallops. The rainbow mountains shimmer in carmine yellow and beige. Their reflection on the crystal clear surface of the water enhances their effect! You will feel like you are on another planet! We will ride on horseback to a lookout point from where you will admire these cosmic views in 360 degrees! You have to see it with your own eyes! At the lake there will be time for the horses to stop and rest, and a picnic with regional Georgian delicacies. After a rest we will set off on the return journey.

2. Rajd konny do Natlismtsemeli, the ancient cave complex of the Monastery of St. John the Baptist

Wyruszymy konno do gruzińskiej Jordanii! Do mistycznego klasztoru w skale św. Jana Chrzciciela, który stanowi fascynującą historię głębokiego chrześcijańskiego dziedzictwa Gruzji. Jego początki sięgają VI wieku. Z biegiem czasu jego mury były świadkami niezliczonych najazdów. Od Turków, przez Persów, po Mongołów. Po dziś dzień mieszkają w tych surowych warunkach zakonnicy. Konno przemierzamy około 35 km w dwie strony. Szlak prowadzi przez rozległe polany, stepy, polne drogi. Na trasie mamy dobre odcinki galopów. Konno dojeżdżamy pod sam klasztor galopując przez kaniony i góry pustyni.

Klasztor Natlismtsemeli

Jak w kadrze westernowego filmu zostawimy nasze konie przed główną bramą kompleksu aby mogły odpocząć. A my na piechotę zwiedzimy wnętrze kościoła w skale, dawne groty, pokoje zakonników oraz wieżę. W okolicy klasztoru będzie przerwa na popas dla koni oraz piknik z regionalnymi, gruzińskimi przysmakami. Po odpoczynku wyruszymy w drogę powrotną. Pożegnamy się z naszymi końmi i pojedziemy do Tbilisi.
